  1. @AlZilla, Just an FYI. Pure Neatsfoot oil and Neatsfoot oil compound are two different things. I only use the pure NFO. JM2C, Jim
  2. Can you spell ludicrous? (I had to look it up.) A coozy for an insulated cup!
  3. Well, if you want opinions, I got 'em! Seriously, I think the piping "hides" the stitching on a turned item. It should also protect the thread from abrading if exposed. JM2C, Jim
  4. Worth at least a million bucks. Probably more with inflation.
  5. Don't know how I missed this one. Beautiful Saddle.
  6. It seems to me people are getting too wound up about someone else's work. If I don't (or do) basket stamp the back of a holster, why does it matter to you unless you are the buyer( or the maker). If I don't like how you did your work, who cares unless I am your target demographic? I really am having trouble understanding why this is such a big deal and quite a long running thread. As usual, JM2C. Jim

    Welcome to the forum Rob.
  8. I have sewn 2 layers of W&C 2-3 oz bridle leather in a test. It worked much better than expected but the 277 thread that I had on hand was too large. The knot was centered well but somewhat visible from both sides. Looks a little strange. I think 138 would've been much better. Might get by with 207 but I had just gotten it and wanted to try it out. JM2C, Jim
  9. I bought one from @RockyAussie and received it here in good old Oklahoma, USA. Price and shipping time was more than reasonable. Very happy with it. I too haven't taken it off yet. JM2C, Jim
  10. Welcome. Try this. https://leatherworker.net/forum/forum/29-gun-holsters-rifle-slings-and-knife-sheathes/
  11. Yup, 60's. I blame most of my shortcomings on that now days.
  12. If this has been me, and it has at times. Maybe not to you. At least I hope not. I will apologize anyway. Sometimes I forget, sometimes I get excited and worst of all, sometimes I'm too blamed "hard headed" to take good advice. My point being, it seems to me that some people are jerks on purpose. Others, and I include myself in this group, are jerks by accident. Like Tom Petty said, "I can't decide which is worse." So if I haven't irritated you yet, I'd like to bank this apology for later. I'll also apologize for the post length and run on sentences. JM2C, Jim
  13. He doesn't show one like you're looking for but here is his link. https://www.saltydawgleather.com/shop/20174758/burnisher-and-sander
  14. I think leather would look good on your ATV. I don't think it would wear as well as the HDPE that the fenders are made of. It would prevent scratches to the fenders, though. I wouldn't loosen the joint of the black to red plastic. The black plastic supports your weight when you stand up and gets part of it's support from those connections. Also, bear in mind that my use might well be very different than yours. My plastic had several scratches and eventually cracks from riding the brush, mud and "mountains" of western Arkansas. Still runs like a top, though. We were hard on them. YMMV, Jim
